This morning a few of us went on a sleigh ride. Here are some photos…

Our Horse in the White Mountains

This horse was huge. It could kick over a house if it felt like it.

This afternoon Danny  and I found snowshoes in the closet, so we strapped them on and ventured out of the cabin. After about 20 minutes, we had worked up a sweat and the sun was warming up. I lifted my hoody off back and stood there shirtless for about 10 seconds. It felt so good that I tied it around my waist. Danny did the same. We spent the next 45 minutes scooting across the snow-covered valley like a bunch of bareback freaks.

Kevin spotted us from the cabin’s front porch, and he decided he wanted to get in on the fun. Danny went inside and Kevin joined me for a second trip. We explored the building sites for new cabins near the base of the mountain. We rounded the frozen lake and jumped over frozen creeks. We discovered tracks and crap from elk and deer. It was quite an afternoon of adventure.
